Abstract

In response to an article in this journal by another contributor, a modest attempt is made in the present paper to put forward additional perspectives concerning the classification and aetiology of psychopathy. An attempt is made also to distinguish between ‘essential’ psychopathy and ordinary recidivist criminality. Finally, some observations are made concerning the question of treatment.
